AI overview
Apollo asteroids are a group of space rocks that cross Earth's orbital path, with orbits that extend farther from the Sun than Earth's but come closer to the Sun than Earth's farthest point. They matter because their Earth-crossing trajectories make them important to monitor for potential collision risks and to study for understanding our solar system.
